In this paper, marine brown algae Laminaria japonica was chemically-modified by crosslinking with epichlorohydrin (EC(1), EC(2)), or oxidizing by potassium permanganate (PC), or only washed by distilled water (DW). They were used for equilibrium sorption uptake studies with lead. As can be seen from the experimental results that biosorption equilibriums were rapidly established in about 2h. The lead adsorption was strictly pH dependent, and maximum removal of lead on biosorbents were observed at pH 5.3. The effects solid/liquid ratio on lead biosorption was also investigated. The maximum lead uptakes were 1.67 mmol g(-1), 1.62 mmol g(-1), 1.54 mmol g(-1) and 1.21 mmol g(-1), respectively for EC(1), EC(2), PC and DW. The order of maximum lead uptakes for different pretreated and raw alga was EC(1)>EC(2)>PC>DW. A comparison of different isotherm models revealed that the combination of Langmuir and Freundlich (L-F) isotherm model fitted the experimental data best. 相似文献
In this work, hexadecyltrimethylammonium-bromide (HTAB)-modified polythiophene (PTh)/TiO2 nanocomposite (HTAB/PTh/TiO2) was applied to remove uranyl ions (UO22+). FT-IR, XRD, ζ potential, TGA, SEM, and XPS were utilized to obtain the chemical and physical properties of HTAB/PTh/TiO2. The effects of HTAB content, preparation temperature, and adsorption conditions on UO22+ removal were investigated comprehensively. And the UO22+ adsorption process on HTAB/PTh/TiO2 was fitted to the Sips model with a saturated adsorption capacity of 234.74 mg/g, which was 6 times over TiO2. The results suggested that the surfactant of HTAB can significantly improve the adsorption ability of TiO2 for UO22+ ions. This work provides a strategy of surfactant modification for enhancing the separation and recovery ability of adsorbent toward UO22+ in the radioactive wastewater.
A novel ferruginous active absorbent, prepared by fly ash, industrial lime and the additive Fe(VI), was introduced for synchronous abatement of binary mixtures of SO2–NOx from simulated coal-fired flue gas. The synergistic action of various factors on the absorption of SO2 and NOx was investigated. The results show that a strong synergistic effect exists between Fe(VI) dose and reaction temperature for the desulfurization. It was observed that in the denitration process, the synergy of Fe(VI) dose and Ca/(S + N) had the most significant impact on the removal of NO, followed by the synergy of Fe(VI) and reaction temperature, and then the synergy of reaction temperature and flue gas humidity. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an accessory X-ray energy spectrometer (EDS) were used to observe the surface characteristics of the raw and spent absorbent as well as fly ash. A reaction mechanism was proposed based on chemical analysis of sulfur and nitrogen species concentrations in the spent absorbent. The Gibbs free energy, equilibrium constants and partial pressures of the SO2–NOx binary system were determined by thermodynamics. 相似文献
